A trend of photovoltaic industry is that 1500VDC system will be in place of nowadays standard 1000VDC system. Higher-voltage systems enable longer strings, which allow for fewer combiner boxes, less wiring and trenching, and therefore less labor. Input voltage from 1000VDC to 1500VDC allows longer strings used in the PV system. Most of the PV […]

New 1-2W G/H series medical DC/DC converter
MORNSUN recently released new 1W/2W DC/DC Converter G/ H series targeting medical, which meet medical design standard EN60601-1 and ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1 3rd Edition (1xMOPP/2xMOOP). Both creepage and clearance of the module’s transformer are 5mm, and 5.5mm for PCB. And the isolation voltage of the module is as high as 4200VAC (6000VDC), which is 40% higher […]
AC loss model simulates SPS inductors accurately
The losses determined with RED EXPERT are based on current and voltage waveforms typical in applications. Besides the core and winding losses, they also include the losses arising from the specific geometries of the inductance, such as the air gap. With this upgrade the losses for buck and boost converters in discontinuous conduction mode can […]

Triple Synchronous Step-Down dc/dc converter operates from 3 to 42-V inputs
Linear Technology Corporation announces the LT8601, a 42V input capable, high efficiency triple output synchronous monolithic step-down switching regulator. Its triple channel design combines two high voltage 2.5A and 1.5A channels with a lower voltage 1.8A channel to deliver three independent voltage outputs as low as 0.8V. Its synchronous rectification topology delivers up to 93% […]
DC-DC converter modules pack 12-A output in a small volume
As the demand for data, analysis and access mushrooms globally, so does the need for increased computational and processing capacity. To accommodate the components necessary to provide this desired capacity, circuit board designers must find ways to get the most out of their available, valuable board space. Helping to address this, GE’s Critical Power business […]
